Background: Medical students have high levels of stress that could be due to the daily life stressors and the extra stress of academic burden. The present study investigated the perceived stress level as well as the reasons and sources of stress among medical students at a comparatively newly established medical college affiliated with King Abdulaziz University (KAU), Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (SA).
Methods: The present study was carried out at Rabigh Medical College (RMC), KAU, Jeddah, and completed in 2015.
Article Synopsis
- Hyperhomocystinemia is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular issues and is notably prevalent in renal transplant recipients, prompting this study to explore how age and time since transplant affect total homocysteine levels.
- The analysis involved 88 renal transplant patients and 60 control subjects, revealing higher tHcy levels in transplant patients, with males exhibiting significantly higher levels than females, while age had no impact on tHcy levels.
- A correlation was found between the duration since transplantation and tHcy levels, alongside relationships with other factors like urea, creatinine, vitamin B12, and potassium, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring in transplant patients.
